I see you have plenty of answers already, but if you use the list of values
that LilyPond uses internally
\relative c'' {
\override Stem #'details #'stem-shorten = #'(1.0 0.5)
<d g b>16 \stemDown <d f, d> }
then you might comment on the recommendation for improvement here
<http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2724>
which will probably prompt some action.
LilyPond's default is the list I typed above : shorten stems with zero flags
by 1.0 staffspace, stems with one-or-more flags by 0.5 staff space.
I guess you will like something closer to #'(1.0 0.3 0.2)
where the extra entry is for stem with two-or-more flags
